Is anyone trying to get back into it and get pregnant again so the kids are really close in age? Or am I the only lunatic? 😅

Pregnancy loss?

Last week I tested positive and on clear blue digital was 1-2 weeks. I’ve tracked progress this week and lines haven’t been progressing. This morning done a test and line is still there but my digital is “not pregnant”. Done two and both said the same. I am/would be around 5 weeks. Am I heading for a loss? 😢

Digital dating tests

I did a digital last Friday which said I was 2-3 & my test today still says 2-3. Albeit I’ve took it in the morning when my tests are normally stronger in the afternoon. Should I be worried? I don’t have any cramping or bleeding etc but I honestly thought my digital would be 3+ by now 🥹
